With Erling Haaland having scored 19 goals in just 12 matches since joining Manchester City, here is a reminder of how much he earns every week in England.

The 22-year-old signed a five-year contract with the Citizens following a successful two-and-a-half-year spell at Borussia Dortmund, for whom he netted 86 times in just 89 appearances.
Haaland, a 23-time Norway international, has continued his upward trajectory by making an incredible start to life in England, having already amassed 19 strike in just 12 outings across all competitions.
Given the impressive numbers he has already posted, it is perhaps worth recalling the terms of his deal with the Premier League champions and how it reflects his current output.
According to Spotrac, Haaland earns a staggering £375 000 (R7.5 million) every seven days under manager Pep Guardiola, a figure that makes him City's second-highest-paid player behind Belgian playmaker Kevin De Bruyne.
Annually, the ex-Red Bull Salzburg and Molde forward is paid £19.5 million (R391.5 million) in Manchester, compared to the £20.8 million (R417 million) De Bruyne earns a year.
Haaland continued his rampant form for City when he scored twice in 45 minutes in their 5-0 win over FC Copenhagen on Wednesday night, with the Norwegian having now scored more goals in the UEFA Champions League than Luis Suarez and Rivaldo did.
His hat-trick against Manchester United this past weekend, meanwhile, saw him become the fastest player in EPL history to net three trebles, and the first to do so in three consecutive home matches.
